Jeanette Winterson

"Everyone's talking about the death and disappearance of the book as a format and an object. I don't think that will happen. I think whatever happens, we have to figure out a way to protect our imaginations. Stories and poetry do that. You need a language in this world. People want words, they want to hear their situation in language, and find a way to talk about it. It allows you to find a language to talk about your own pain.If you give kids a language, they can use it. I think that's what these educators fear. If you really educate these kids, they aren't going to punch you in the face, they are going to challenge you with your own language."

"I had relationships with men as well as women. I wasn't choosing; I didn't think I had to."

Relationship

Quote_1.png
Jeanette Winterson
"Often when she liked a picture she found that she was liking some part of herself, some part of her that was in accord with the picture."

Self

Jeanette Winterson
"A tough life needs a tough language-and that is what poetry is. That is what literature offers-a language powerful enough to say how it is."

Poetry

Jeanette Winterson
"I think we still believe that ambition is for boys."

Ambition

Quote_1.png
Jeanette Winterson
"Growing up is difficult. Strangely, even when we have stopped growing physically, we seem to have to keep on growing emotionally, which involves both expansion and shrinkage, as some parts of us develop and others must be allowed to disappear...Rigidity never works; we end up being the wrong size for our world."

Growth

Quote_1.png
Jeanette Winterson
"The future is foretold from the past and the future is only possible because of the past. Without past and future, the present is partial. All time is eternally present and so all time is ours. There is no sense in forgetting and every sense in dreaming. Thus the present is made rich."

Time

Jeanette Winterson
"I think therefore I am. Does that mean 'I feel therefore I'm not'? But only through feeling can I get at thinking."

"The wider we read the freer we become."

Knowledge

Quote_1.png
Jeanette Winterson
"It's true that heroes are inspiring but mustn't they also do some rescuing if they are to be worthy of their name? Would Wonder Woman matter if she only sent commiserating telegrams to the distressed?"
